I don’t just make the podcast, I’m a fan of it too. So here is another favorite from recent episodes.
6:54 - Melanie Gruben "Water Charges Song" from Like a Tide Upon the Land
On St. Patrick's Day, I was born. American by birth, my heritage unknown. Twas two years ago on a musical journey My heart flew to Ireland on the wings of a note.
* O Ireland, how I long for your valleys and mountains! How I long to see your hills and streams. From my home 'cross the ocean, I hear your voice singing, "Happy Birthday from Ireland, my child of the green! La la laa, la di la laa, la laa di la la Happy Birthday from Ireland, my child of the green!"
My Da played the tunes on squeezebox and fiddle. And the songs they were tuned to the harp in my soul. St Paddy, ye never told me that I was Irish. 'Till I heard your voice singing, bringing me home.
Now two years have passed and Ireland sings with me. In every song that flows from my voice and from harp. But I see your eyes smiling and your arms wide open. From the way your children open their hearths and their hearts

23:58 - HYPNOTIZED WITH FUNNY MUSIC
Cedric is the fiddler and one of the singers of Bedlam Bards, a comedic Celtic group from Austin, Texas that was one of my biggest influences when learning how to put on a show. This weekend, I sat down with Cedric to get an in depth interview about how he escaped Lubbock to join the SCA, form a Celtic band, and hypnotize his audiences with charm and wit.
54:44 - Bedlam Bards “Crayfish” from Take Out the Trash
57:53 - LAUGHTER IS THE BEST MEDICINE
James Hazelrig is not only a funny fiddler, he's also a certified hypnotist in Austin, Texas with a lot of funny advice on laughing. I chatted with him at the Sherwood Forest Faire where I start the show with him using some of his hypnosis training and marketing prowess to promote his shows. Then we go into a wonderful discussion of his life as a hypnotist and Laughing Yoga. This is a funny and informative episode you will enjoy.

6:05 - MY FAVORITES OF CELTIC TOP 20
Every week, the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast asks fans of the show to vote for your favorite songs in the podcast. Those votes are compiled at the end of the year to create the Celtic Top 20, your pick of the best music of the year.
I don’t just make the podcast. I’m a fan of it too. So here is another favorite from recent episodes.
6:36 - Ed Miller “More Than Just a Dram” from Lolander
I wrote this song in December 2000. It began with the idea of a woman who's True Love was lost at sea. But as the story developed, it reminded me of Buttercup's "True Love"--Wesley--in the cult classic, "The Princess Bride"a, so I named it after her. It's a sad, but beautiful song, sung great a cappella or as I play it, with a solo autoharp.
There's a leaf on a tree and it's swaying And a girl 'neath the tree tears in her eyes. There's a wolf on the run saying 'Where have ye gone?' 'Oh where have ye gone sweet love of mine.'
Oh wind, cruel wind, bring and end, an end To the storm that took me love afore his time Oh wind, cruel wind, bring and end, an end I long for him. Will ye bring my true love back to me side
There's a puddle on the ground and it's growing And a girl above the pond tears in her eyes There's a fox on the run saying 'Where have ye gone?' 'Oh where have ye gone sweet love of mine.'
There's a woman on the run saying, 'Where have ye gone? Oh where have ye gone sweet love of mine? Oh where have ye gone sweet love of mine? Oh where oh where? I long for ye here. Oh where have ye gone sweet love of mine?

43:22 - Enda Reilly “Off the Grid For a While” from Single
46:59 - BIKING ACROSS ITALY WITH CARL ASCH
Travel is a grand adventure to me. So I love talking with other adventurers. One such person is Carl Asch. He's a musician and juggler named Giacomo the Juggler. He sings with the band Empty Hats. He is also the co-founder with Paolo Garbanzo of Ren Adventurers, a tour company that takes you on small European trips much like my Celtic Invasion Vacations. But today, I wanted to talk to Carl about a bicycle trip he did across Italy.
In this episode we'll explore:

9:28 - THE STORY OF SPIDERWEBS
Inspired by the episode “Our Mrs Reynolds” from the TV show Firefly
Mal: Now, think real hard. You've been birddoggin' this township a while now. They wouldn't mind a corpse of you. Now, you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear, by my pretty floral bonnet, I will end you.
Bad men are bird dogging our town Dogging our town, Bird dogging our town Bad men are bird dogging our town We’ll lay a trap for them.
We’re gonna spin a spiderweb Spiderweb, Spiderweb We’re gonna spin a spiderweb That’s how we will catch them.
I’ll wear a soft cotton dress A soft cotton dress, soft cotton dress I’ll wear a soft cotton dress With a pretty floral bonnet on top
Will shoot them down in the spider web Spiderweb, spiderweb Will shoot them down in the spider web And celebrate our win
A pretty little girl has lured me in Lured me in, lured me in A pretty little girl has lured me in Declared her love for me
She caught my heart in a spiderweb Spiderweb , Spiderweb She caught my heart in a spiderweb Now how will this all end
She’s leading me to the end of the line End of the line, end of the line She’s leading me to the end of the line We'll put things right again
I’ll break free from her spiderweb Spiderweb, spiderweb I’ll break free from her spiderweb And never kiss a girl again
Come here little lady, May I meet you I meet you, I meet you Come here little lady may I meet you Guess it begins again
It’s all a game of spiderwebs Spiderwebs, spiderwebs It’s all a game of spiderwebs And everybody falls in
